KD Panels Technical Data Sheet

Produc t
KD Prefinished Veneered Panels (KD Panels) consist of real wood veneer laminated onto a 3-Ply plywood with a UV cured
coating on the surface. This product comes prefinished; thus, no finishing is required and comes ready to use and/or fabri-
cate.

Product characteristics include:

Size: 2440mm x 1220mm
Thickness: 3.0 – 5.2 mm (Depending on product)
Weight: 6.0 (+/-) 1.0 Kg.
Surface treatment: UV-cured coating. The finish is free from solvents and formaldehyde.

Product Structure:

Scratches and Impact:

KD Panels are not intended for high-wear applications or transit areas that are prone to abuse. The surface of KD Panels
can be damaged by severe abuse or carelessness. Do not slice, chop, pound, or hammer on the panel surface. Heavy
impact can cause cracks and gouges in the surface.

Color Consistency:
This product is made from real wood veneer, thus slight variation in color may occur due to the characteristics of each
individual piece of wood and its reaction to the coating procedures. Slight variations between batches of panels shall not
be considered as a defect.

The storage conditions of KD Panels:
1. Should be stored horizontally and fully supported, with the top sheet turned face down.
2. Should not be in direct contact with floor or exterior walls.
3. Should be stored in a well-ventilated area (at a moderate ambient temperature), protected from sun, heat, extreme
humidity or arid conditions.
4. Avoid bending and cracking of products. Care should be taken if the sheets are to be rolled (rolling against the grain
may cause the veneer to crack). It is not recommended storing panels in rolls. To avoid any mishandling, panels should
be always moved or lifted by at least two people.

Ap plic ation s
KD Prefinished Veneered Panel is ideally suited for use on interior surfaces. The surface has a peel-off PP (Polypropylene)
protective film to protect the surface during delivery and application. It is suggested to remove the protective film after
onsite installation is finished. Color uniformity and quality of the surface should be checked before working with the panel.
Exposure to direct and strong UV light (natural or artificial) can result in changes in the color over time. This does not
indicate a product defect or failure.

Substrate: KD Panels are not a structural materials and must be adhered to a suitable substrate having a clean and flat
surface such as particleboard, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), high-density fiberboard (HDF), sheetrock, plywood, etc.
The substrate must be smooth and free of grease, wax, dust, oil, silicones, and other foreign matter. All uneven areas must
be sanded or filled, ensuring the surface is flat. The substrate must be uniform in thickness. This product can be applied
and machined with tools normally used for regular woodworking.

Adhesives: KD Panels may be glued with many of the conventional adhesives used with plastic panels. Please check with
your adhesive supplier to make sure that the adhesive you select is suitable for your application. Follow adhesive manufac-
turer’s instructions as to the use of the adhesive and the preparation of the substrate.

Balancing: A board applied with KD Panels should be paneled with a suitable backing sheet to balance the stress on both
sides and to minimize warping. To achieve the best installation result, please use KD Panels on both sides. Other materials
such as conventional panels be used as an alternative. (Keding does not hold responsible for any quality issues related with
the alternative product chosen by the user.)

Lamination: Allow KD Panels sheets to acclimate to the same ambient conditions (temperature and humidity) for a minimum
of 48 hours prior to lamination. Cold pressing is recommended for this product.
Edging: All edges of KD Panels must be covered with KD prefinished paperbacked veneer and sealed using KD edge paint
to prevent moisture penetration which could cause damage to the veneer. The edging procedures for KD Panels are as
below:

We suggest using a damp cloth with mild water for cleaning purposes. For more stubborn stains use damp cloth with
alcohol.
